Bride Chic: Stalking The Look Books- How I Discovered Mikaella
About Bride Chic Recently one of my devoted readers sent me photos of her wedding. What a treat! One look at her and I was swept away by the clean lines and fit of her wedding dress. She wore an empire A-line dress by Mikaella, a relatively new label from the Toronto-based design house, Paloma Blanca. What amazes me about these wedding dresses is fit and use of fabric. Above, De Anna looks like she's wearing a second skin, the dress is part of her, moving with her. For the...
Spring 2011 Bridal Runway: Oscar de la Renta Wedding Dresses!
Oscar de la Renta’s flair for the dramatic really comes through in his Spring 2011 Bridal collection! I love how each wedding dress exudes style from a certain era; there are Victorian-inspired pieces, modern architectural creations, and everything in between. And the variation within the collection doesn’t stop there! There are dramatic, frilly ball gowns with skirts so voluminous that they defy logical reason; white structured dresses without a single embellishment or...

Bubbly Bride: Unique Traditions, And One Dream Wedding Dress!
About Bubbly Bride Recently I had the opportunity to experience a true act of kindness, and what I think would make a sweet tradition if chosen to participate in. Wedding budgets and costs are one of the most stressful parts of any wedding. No budget or planning can prepare you for the wedding war on your wallet. The dollar amounts will keep adding up and any savings you can find will be a huge relief to your stress level. While shopping with a bride-to-be recently, I was lucky...
Eye On Bridal Fashion: Douglas Hannant Spring 2011 Wedding Dresses
While we couldn’t make it to NYC for April 2010 Bridal Market, we are keeping a close eye on the newest bridal collections. I'm totally into Douglas Hannant's Spring 2011 collection. What I love about this bridal line? You can't put it into a box and wrap it up with a pretty bow... it doesn't scream one specific style (it's not "romantic", or "modern", or "classic"). Each wedding dress that graced the catwalk was so different than the last, with its own unique style and...
TWO knockout wedding day looks without the 2nd dress!
Get the second wedding reception look without buying a second wedding dress! There's no denying the two wedding dress trend! Kate Middleton wore two, Kim Kardashian wore three, and 2012 brides are thinking that more is more. But purchasing two gorgeous gowns can be expensive... and here at onewed, we do not condone breaking the wedding budget to buy that second dress. So how can a bride showcase two unique looks (one for the ceremony, one for the reception) without...
Bride Chic: Is Renting Your Wedding Dress The Way To Go?
About Bride Chic I thought this void in the market would be filled by some good old Yankee ingenuity but it hasn’t been. Do a search on wedding dress rental and just see what comes up. I found you can rent a gown these days, but shops offering this service are scattered thin. Most designers including those of the stylish one-off Etsy variety aren't even open to taking the plunge. So I asked salon owners a couple pertinent questions. The first one: Would you consider renting some of...
Eye On Bridal Fashion: Black Accents, Sophisticated Style
One of the major bridal fashion trends that carried over from 2009, and came out swingin' in 2010- White, cream, and ivory wedding dresses with black accents. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is about this trend that makes me swoon... but there is just something so chic and sophisticated about a little pop of black, totally unexpected, against the neutral background of the wedding dress. It's very Old World aristocracy meets Parisian Haute Couture if you ask me! As more and more...
